Muzik 4 machines is a minimal electro house act from Montreal, Canada.


The project was started in 1991 by TBA03 with the goal of making music to listen for himself. the project was put on hold a few years then in 2007, he resumed where he left with gigs and events outside and in clubs, small venues and bars.

It all began with a Portastudio, a guitar and a TR-707 drum machine, early compositions were a mix between early house and grunge music, mixing the 4 on the floor rhythm with loud fuzz guitar. As the technology evolved, so did the Project; recruiting performers and signers and buying, finding or building new gadgets and sound mangling devices. When computer became powerful enough to generate and process sound, a new page of M4M history started.


The Music also evolved from simple riffs over a steady beat to more complex and mysterious texture in some works and at the same time exploded into Rave party music in others. They got some good charts apparition online and even sold Cd's worldwide on the then underground mp3.com website that since closed.


Over the years, different styles were explored as the personel changed (house, techno, drum and bass, rock, noise rock, pop, trance, and some unclassifiable sounds). Guests including Luke, MisterW, YUL and DP participated to different Live events and recordings (all available online).


Back to minimal electro house, Muzik 4 Machines is now producing new material, performing it live, and distributing it via bit torrent and youtube.

@koncertLive as a guitar player for 20 years, i can tell you it's much harder to be MUSICAL on those than it is on a guitar, guitar is easy, piano too, but that needs perfect technique, there is no frets nor keys

I don't know why everyone is complaining about us people using these intruments instead. I play guitar, piano, drums, and various other instruments. I am also a big fan of remixing old pieces made by famous composers into progressive house or dubstep. It's quite fun. But i consider this to be a more interactive way to make music if you don't really know anyone else who is as musically inclined as you are. Plus, you are free to create almost anything with these instruments.

Lol. I think playing a physical instrument is easier to be honest. I also do synthesis and it's a lot harder cause you have to sort of imagine how you want it to sound and whether that sound you are using is quite right. With my instruments i know what it sounds like i just gotta make the melody. this stuff isn't as easy, i used to have the same opinion and now i use the stuff it's hard -.- .

@koncertLive - Just because an instrument's interface appears simple does not mean it is simple. Try playing hand drums - looks easy, but the nuances are very hard to produce. Similarly, the Irish whistle looks simple, but it requires real skill to play well. Finally, don't even get me started on the digeridoo - a primitive tribal instrument that is not easy to master in any manner.

[goldAUsilverAG]

@koncertLive I once thought like you but after using the Kaossilator, I know that these are instruments that the musician must be very involved with in order to produce something worth listening to.

[muzik4machines]

@RetroPCDOS exactly :)

@koncertLive

It consider a musical instrument, the yellow ones is a synthesizer the red one is a FX processor. I been playing a grand panio, analog synthesizer and electric and acoustic guitar since small. I still pickup a kaossilator pro and KP3 to do loops and effects with as I create alot of electronic music and to give a 80's effect You can even plug your keyboards and guiltar to the line level in on the back to record and create some cool effects.

@houseeka what is not as easy as i see? (or you replied to the wrong comment?)
